The Cara Cara has become a popular variety at Farmers Markets. These pink navels are less acidic than other citrus and have a sweet, berry-like flavor. It’s believed that the rise in popularity of the Cara Cara is largely due to its social media presence. Thanks to platforms like Instagram, consumers have gotten a sneak peak into the orange’s inner beauty; then, they recall its appeal when they spot one at the market. Besides photographing these flashy knockouts, you can use them to top pistachio-crusted scallops, cut the peel and make a citrus and beet salad, or add them to a bright cocktail.
